Part Number: 6802

37° JIC Male x SAE ORB Male 45° Elbow

Product Overview

The Delphi Fittings Part 6802 is a 45° adapter elbow designed to provide a secure, angular connection between a JIC (Joint Industry Council) 37° flare system and an SAE O-Ring Boss (ORB) port. This fitting features a male JIC 37° flare on one end and a male SAE O-Ring Boss thread on the other, forming a 45-degree angle. It is typically used to connect hydraulic hoses with female JIC swivel ends or flared tubes to components such as pumps, valves, or manifolds that have female SAE ORB ports, where a gradual change in direction is required. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, the Part 6802 elbow ensures a reliable, leak-free 45-degree transition between these common hydraulic connection types.

Applications

The Part 6802 adapter elbow is widely used for integrating JIC and ORB components at a 45-degree angle:

Connecting hydraulic hoses with female JIC swivel ends to ORB ports on components where a 45-degree turn is needed for optimal routing.
Routing flared tubing with JIC connections to ORB ports, allowing for smoother bends than a 90-degree elbow.
Use in mobile equipment (construction, agriculture), industrial machinery, and hydraulic power units requiring precise angular connections between different fitting types.
Facilitating clean and efficient hydraulic plumbing where a gradual change in direction is preferred.

Installation & Usage Guidelines

Ensure all threads and sealing surfaces (JIC male flare, ORB O-ring groove, mating JIC female seat, and ORB port boss) are clean, undamaged, and free of contaminants.
For the ORB end, ensure the O-ring is correctly sized, lubricated with system-compatible fluid, and properly seated in its groove on the male ORB fitting. Thread the male ORB end into the female ORB port by hand.
Connect the male JIC end to the female JIC swivel nut, ensuring the 37° flare surfaces align correctly. Hand-tighten.
Use appropriate wrenches on the elbow body and mating fittings. Tighten the ORB end to the recommended torque specification for its size. Then, tighten the JIC nut to its recommended torque, ensuring the elbow is correctly oriented at 45 degrees.
Use backup wrenches as needed to prevent stress on components or existing lines.

Why Choose Delphi Fittings Part 6802?

Precise 45° Adaptation: Provides a secure 45-degree connection between JIC 37° flare and SAE O-Ring Boss systems.
